/**
* FXRex is a regular expression class implementing a NFA matcher.
* It supports capturing parentheses, non-capturing parentheses,
* positive or negative lookahead, backreferences, case-insensitive
* matching, counted repetitions, lazy or greedy matches, and
* PERL-like matching operators.
* The subject string may be scanned forwards or backwards, and may
* contain any of 256 possible character values.
*
* When parsing a regular expression pattern, the mode parameter is
* the bitwise OR of a set of flags and affects the match algorithm.
* Passing the flag REX_CAPTURE enables capturing parentheses
* and back references. The flag REX_ICASE enables case-insensitive
* matching. When the flag REX_NEWLINE is passed, newlines are treated
* like normal characters; otherwise, newline is NOT matched
* except when explicitly part of a character class. The flag
* REX_VERBATIM disables all special character interpretation.
*
* When matching a compiled pattern, the mode parameter is the
* bitwise OR of a set of flags that affects how the match is
* performed.  Passing the flag REX_BACKWARD causes the match
* to proceed backwards through the subject string.  Passing the
* flags REX_NOT_BOL and/or REX_NOT_EOL causes the begin and
* end of the subject string NOT to be considered a line start
* or line end. The flag REX_NOT_EMPTY causes a match to fail if
* the empty string was matched.
